Super Awesome Suv —
An awesome SUV.... Go anywhere, do anything. A true timeless vehicle.feel like a Mercedes on smooth roads. Gets a little bumpy on poor roads, do to its solid axles. Tons on power and torque. A cool around town SUV as well as an off road beast. Quite comfortable on long highway trips also. Would really recommend.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros:
Built like a tank, timeless style. Feel like you could drive through a brick wall.

Would Love To Upgrade It —
Performance - acceleration: Surprisingly responsive
braking: Best brakes on an SUV
handling: Quite nimble for such a big car
Build Quality - Built like a tank,fells like a VIP lounge
Appearance - Aggresive and sharp
Cost of Ownership - Not an everyday car, maintenance is surprisingly affordable
Fun Factor - The whole family loves it

Perfect Urban Assault Vehicle —
The G55 AMG was the family choice for a "dog car" that had great acceleration, quality and styling. It definitely is not a "Soccer Mom" vehicle and beat out the Range Rover in the final analysis. The body style is timeless and the sound of that AMG engine revving up is awesome. I gave up the E55 (out of love for my dirty dogs who were too much for the backseat) a bit reluctantly because I though I would be driving a gutless bubble minivanish SUV that was in my price range. With the G55, no compromises. Love it!

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros:
Great zoom factor, luxury and cargo space

Cons:
I wish the <2007 models had updated technology, but with available aftermarket iPod and Bluetooth, I am hooked up

Love My Benz —
Thought it could perform better when I took it off-
road, overall a wonderful SUV. Luxury wise, you
couldn't ask for anything else. The solidity of it, makes
you feel incredibly secure. If you want speed, this isn't
the car for you, although acceleration wise, it behaves
amazing up to 80 mph

Amazing —
The best SUV that you can ever get and suitable for all seasons with it's strong engine 489HP . But it's little expensive too !
Driving is the most amazing part and you'll never get bored ! ( TRUST ME )
Amazing ,good , and the best .

Mercedes Gelaendewagen G-500 —
It takes you anywhere at anytime in perfect comfort,
safety and style. There is no question that it is the
real deal. The fact that it does not change year to year
means you never feel like you are driving an older
vehicle. It is built to last and that is good value.
Driving this vehicle gives me a tremendous sense of
well-being.

One Of The Greatest Suvs On The Market. —
We bought it from my uncle after his lease was over with and bought it for half the price of it brand new. It was originally a European military vehicle and it really shows in its build quality. It has loads of power accelerating to 60 mph in seven seconds. It is amazing because it weighs so much. The gas mileage is terrible though.

Great All Around Car That Is Somewhat Unique —
Build quality would be 5 if the window regulators would last. Overall fuel economy is very poor. Performs respectably on the street and is a mountain goat on the trails. Repairs can be costly if you are not able to spin a few wrenches on your own.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Pros:
If you like the thought of driving a leather lined, heated seat tank

Literally A Safety Machine.By TARPONTAMMER

I believe there are only a few hundred made each year and my wife and girls are a very precious cargo, I believe this is one of the safest vehicles for them to ride in as well as most all Mercedes.
